Rubio is looking good in the entrance polls

I would be pretty happy with those results, if they hold, which they won't, because the last 12 months just ain't my year.
 
I should have known better to join a political forum.

I'm actually watching the caucus on TV. :doh

I am watching Supergirl on CBS. I figure if I am going to watch a fictional entity I am going to pick a pretty girl over a bunch of phony turds who are lying through their teeth

That show is so much better with the sound off.
 
CNN has him down nearly 3 to 1 to both Trump and Cruz.

With like 1,000 votes in of an expected 130,000+ votes

One of the most promising signs in the entrance poll for Rubio is that he’s leading with college graduates: 28 percent Rubio, 25 percent Trump, 20 percent Cruz. Also with post-graduate degree-holders: 25 percent Rubio, 24 percent Cruz, 18 percent Trump.

Rubio is also leading among “somewhat conservatives” in the early entrance polls with 28 percent to Trump’s 27 percent.

Clinton up 6 percent very early(read: almost meaningless).

Also note that entrance polls are useless in Iowa, since the process involves people changing their "vote".

On the democrat side much less so on the republican side
 
Then what numbers was your statement based on?

The entrance polls. The raw vote totals take a while to come in in the big cites which is where Rubio will do best
 
Bush has 2 counties so far
 
Trump trumping, he's doing well, but he's no running away with it yet.
 
Interesting, that MSNBC has switched both races from "Too Early to Call", to "Too Close to Call", and they pointed-out the distinction.
 
Rubio with 6 counties so far
 
The Bern supporters need to step it up.

Fair enough. Closer than I thought they'd be.
